[Verse]
G#m F# G#m
I live out yonder where the snakes and scorpions run
G#m F# F#
Got myself a little goldmine to bank on
C#m C#m G#m G#m
But one day my heart sank when i saw madame in town
G#m F# E G#m
I knew her love would be the death of mine
[Verse]
G#m F# G#m
L'amour passé, l'amour obsolète
G#m G#m F#
Pourquoi perdre sa vie à chercher l'or d'un coeur?
C#m C#m G#m G#m
Je ne me noierai pas dans ce désert mystique
G#m F# E G#m G#m
Je ferme mes comptes et je repars
[Chorus]
B B F# F#
Do me a favor while i'm hanging here
B B G#m G#m
Take this gold and go and hide
[Verse]
G#m G#m F# G#m
Ne gigote pas, chéri, sur ta corde pendu
G#m F# E G#m G#m
Don't worry I'll be free in no time
[Solo]

G#m F# E G#m G#m
[Verse]
G#m G#m F# G#m
She promised me she would be there when i'd return
G#m F# F#
She didn't say she'd have an army there as well
C#m C#m G#m G#m
She whispered, "j'taime baby"; as she fired that gun at me
G#m F# E G#m G#m
Mais je n'ai plus beaucoup de temps
[Chorus]
B B F#
I should've stayed way out yonder
B B G#m G#m
Better off with the scorpions and snakes
[Verse]
G#m G#m F# G#m
Every act which has no heart will be found out in the end
G#m F# E G#m G#m
Guess i'm a little late this time
G#m F# E D#m D#m
Cause her love would be the death of mine
D#m D#m G#m G#m
Mine, all mine
